Description

Take an award-winning, big-mountain, all-muscle driver like the Freedom SL and tune it up, Of course! Meet the Freedom RS! First we retune the cuff in a stiffer polyamide material for less lateral flex and more control. We bump the forward flex up to 130 and use a custom liner — thermo-moldable in the lower and a race-inspired, reinforced upper. The “Mountain Plus” sole mates with tech-style bindings, but can be swapped for the “Piste,” a straight-up alpine sole. Enormous range of movement in walk mode, more control than your mother-in-law wants at Thanksgiving, and the same reliable hardware we use on the SL – Freedom RS. Get ready to send.

Sizing

Measure your foot with a ruler, using cm or inches; convert to Euro or US using this chart. If you need mondo sizing, please refer to the SCARPA chart on this page/tab.
We recommend you purchase two sizes, the size you think you are plus one .5 size bigger for fit testing at home. As long as the products are in like new condition and the packaging is 100% intact, we will credit you for the returned product.

General fitting rules depend on the product's intended use... follow the appropriate guidelines below for best results.

Trail/mountain/approach/lifestyle products:

The bigger/heavier/more supportive the product, the more you may want to upsize .5 - 1full size. Lighter, softer, more supple shoes can be sized closer to your measured size.

Try on with appropriate socks for your usage. The bigger the boot, the more appropriate a bigger sock (sounds crazy, huh?)

If you use orthotics or already have aftermarket footbeds, measure against the standard footbed in boot. Fit into boot for sizing/fitting the boot.

Best to try on at the end of the day when your feet are larger/swollen, than when your feet are fresh to ensure good fit after a long day.

Lacing can play an incredibly important part of a good fit. Be sure to play with lacing when analyzing fit.

Make sure your heel isn't slipping.

Make sure your toes aren't hitting the end.

**Approach shoes may be sized smaller for performance purposes but beware... small shoes are really uncomfortable on the trail.

Rock climbing shoes

From your measured size, you'll want to consider downsizing .5 - 2 full sizes. The flatter the shoe, the closer to your measured size; the more downturned/aggressive the shoe, the more you'll want to downsize.

The best fit is comparative between sizes and only you will be able to judge that, though an experience climber could offer good insights to your fit.

Purchased these after really thinking hard about what I want/need and trying on NUMEROUS boots and sizes, including the softer Freedom SL. I'm not a big guy (508/175) and the 130 flex of these was slightly intimidating. After skiing them however, the flex is fantastic. I ski hard when alone but have to dial it back with the fam so I need versatility as well as super performance. The RS did not disappoint! Dropped 1 shell size from my previous boots and fit with an initial heat molding was not satisfactory after my first day in them. Christy Sports did me a solid with an orthotic, better heat molding, and 6th toe punches on both boots. Outstanding work and they ski like a dream. In the cold, flex is slightly softer than I expected out of a 130 which for me is probably a good thing. Great feel on the snow, power transmission is immediate, and the walk mode is a huge advantage. I swapped out the Mountain Plus soles for the Piste version and had to settle for the lady's blue model. The men's lime green was out of stock everywhere I searched but other than a mismatched color scheme, I've been told they're identical. Zero performance issues thus far. Headed back out next week and looking forward to getting more time in them. These were used on Salomon X-Drive 8.8s and STH bindings.

Wow! Just got the new pair several weeks ago, and have been on them 4 times. Absolutely awesome!!! :). I have a slightly wide foot, and these have excellent fitting for me. Perfect.
And had the liner molded to my feet and couldn't be happier.
Over the past weekend did some skinning and the performance was Ultimate....the walking position is awesome !!!
Keep up the great work Scarpa in ski boots, as you do in my climbing shoe's !!! Fantastic!

My favorite ski boot of all time... My favorite SCARPA boot of all time! This boot skis as hard as I want and I tour exclusively on this boot now, despite owning Maestrales as I like to go up to get down!
